You walk beside my life
Looking ahead
Lost in what has to be
What can’t be
And I look at a last love
Looking in despair
Turning away from us
And disappearing in the midnight.
I stop
the darkness swallows the biting of my heart
and I decide on separate ways
Just like a casual passer-by
Just a casual passer-by
That’s what you are
But no blame is made
No blame is fair
And I can’t understand the meaning of your smile
The meaning of your look
And your eyes searching for my eyes
And this wondering meaning of your pause
in places where I stand
And I talk to the mirror of years
From this short distance of living and losing life
And I feel the ease of words leaving my heart
And flying in the air you breathe in
And the safety of this secret you will keep
And I know that I forever will live with this feeling.
